Ultraviolet Filter and Camera Lens reflection problem

Hello,

I'm a newbie using and learning my new HMC150 camcorder.

I recently bought an 72UV 72mm Ultraviolet Filter for the camera Lens.


The main reason is to help reduce the blue haze that is caused by blue and UV radiation and also...to protect the camera lens from getting scratches.

Now I noticed (depending on camcorder angle and light position) that sometimes I can see the reflection of the camera lens. Of course, it shows up on the resulting video.

Is there a way to avoid this problem? Is there another specific UV filter which removes camera lens reflection?

thanks

This is the one I use. Don't have a reflection issue, may be that its got a better coating on it vs that particular Hoya.
Hoya does make filters in different quality levels too so I am not saying Hoya is a bad brand or anything.
I always get a good filter like B+W. Never buy a filter based solely or primarily on price. Using cheap glass in front of a quality lens is false economy.
